It's not that violence is never okay, it's more a tool in the tool chest that has its uses.

Well likely need violence to redistribute wealth yes, but violence is more than physical and still involved in community policing. But the difference is it's mean to serve the community, not hold them in check.

There's a fine line to draw between letting people self govern and ensuring the safety of peoples.

But again, this is up to communities to decide what is best. Sometimes violence and intervention are necessary. But those tools are reserved for extremes.
